    Nah, the hours were fewer but during those hours I had a lot less freedom to the point of having to ask just to go to the bathroom. Plus having to do homework and having strict deadlines (turns out missing deadlines in office work isn’t as big of a deal as it is in school). Now if we’re talking about university/college, then yeah, those years were great, provided you didn’t have to work many hours on the side. I had a part-time job, but things were light enough that those years were leisurely and lovely, certainly better than the grind now.
